  1. I believe I know the answer to this but I'll ask anyway.

    I have a frame (Haro V-1) made for a 7-spd freewheel
    that I want to convert to single speed. One option is of
    course to get SS wheels. Another is to get an multi-speed
    freewheel and use spacers. I'm leaning toward the 2nd
    options since I see more of multi-speed wheels. Question
    is will a 8/9 speed wheelset fit on this frame?

    What's the spacing of the rear dropouts? If it's 135mm, then yes it will
    fit.
